FIREFIGHTING MEASURES Suitable (and unsuitable) extinguishing media Special protective equipment and precautions for firefighters Specific hazards arising from the chemical Use extinguishing measures that are appropriate to local circumstances and the surrounding environment. Wear self contained breathing apparatus for firefighting if necessary. Emits toxic fumes (hydrogen chloride gas, manganese oxides) under fire conditions. (See also Stability and Reactivity section) 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Environmental precautions See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Prevent spillage from entering drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided. Any Revised on 09/14/2015 Page 2 of 6
Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up release to the environment may be subject to a federal/national or local reporting requirements. Neutralize spill with sodium bicarbonate or lime. Absorb spill with noncombustible absorbent material, then place in a suitable container for disposal. Clean surfaces thoroughly with water to remove residual contamination. Dispose of all waste and cleanup materials in accordance with regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Precautions for safe handling See section 8 for recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment. Use with adequate ventilation. Wash thoroughly after using. Keep container closed when not in use. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Store in cool, dry, well ventilated area in tightly-closed, plainly-labeled containers. Protect against light. Store in corrosion-proof area. Keep away from incompatible materials (see section 10 for incompatibilities). 8.
